40lbs

Hi I'm one year out today and I'm a slowwwww loser I feel very discouraged and depressed about my results. I'm still struggling to keep my weight down up 3 lbs down 3 lbs. Anyone else in the same boat as me?

I dont believe that protein is the issue. I eat more protein now than before surgery and ive been an extremely slow loser. Maybe it ia the b vitamin but since my lap band ive struggled with my b levels and take b12 and b1 a lot. Maybe its time to get some bloodwork. I had a full thick head of hair and I think my hair loss is extreme at this point.

Ok when does the hairloss stop?! Mine started about 6-8 weeks out, it has been 6 months since my surgery and still lots of loss. Why is this? Im not buying the protein bit. Any insight?

I must be the slowest loser ever! I've close to 40 lbs and am down 2 pant sizes. Although I notice and people notice weightloss this is not what I expected at my 6 month mark. I def eat less and make better decisions but this Ian so discouraging. My mother is always asking me to call the Dr to ask him why this didnt work. I wouldn't have been able to lose at all if I didn't have the surgery but I just thought I would have at least been down 60 lbs by now.

Kinny mom u will be able to eat again. I haven't had much of a problem. I'm two months out and can eat veggies, chicken etc. I make healthier choices and eat protein first. I don't feel like I'm missing out on anything. I'm now averaging a loss of 4 lbs a week since being off liquids and I feel great! The first month is rough, hang in there.

I'm down another 2 lbs still slow but ill take it over gaining

Even though its elective it will ne covered. I believe the standard is 3 weeks off but I was extended to 4 and glad. This was not as easy as I thought and need more time to.adjust. those who went back in a week, I can't even imagine.

I think 30 lbs is awesome! I'm 3 weeks out and still hovering at the same weight. Total of 10 lbs or so. I'm so discouraged. Why the heck doesn't this weight want to come off?

Anyone have any tips on how to get the weight to start coming off. I expected at least 20 lbs the first month. If its not coming off now imagine when i start to eat regular food.

I was sleeved 6/20 and am losing slow... Im a bit depressed about being that i eat so little, smh

My first 3days were PTO then STD.

Ask you nUtritioNist if you can use agave. I know there are calories like sugar but you need less and it wont spike your sugar levels like sugar will. I have one coffee a day with it.

I've been putting cottage cheese in my shakes for added protein. I'm finding it hard to also drink the shakes. I sent away for a bunch of sample flavors and still can't find any that are great. I stick with my.muscle milk powder.

I don't know if I should be concerned or not.
